FOREIGN MAILS.

Figures and Suggestions From the Anrtu-
al Report of Superintendent Bell OF the
Foreign Mail Service-The Estimate for
the Next Fiscal Year.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 23-Nicholas ii.
Bell. superintendent of foreign mails
Post-ofhce Department., in his annual re-
port for the year ended June /, 1887, shows
that the total cost of the service was
Si2o,S1S,53. The total weight of the mails
conveyed from the United States to
foreign countries shows an increase in
the trans atlantic mail of 1888 per cent.
in letters and 1875 per cent. of other
articles; for Central and South Ameri-
can countries 1921 per cent. increase in
letters and 2149 per cent. of other
articles The increased business
lations of the United States with
Central and South American
countries is further shown by the fact
that in 1883 there were 561 sailing vessels,
carrying the United States mails to these
countries, and in 1887 there were S31. The
report contains a copy of the recent treaty
concluded between the United States and
Mexico, and alludes to the large retail
trade which has sprung up as a result of
the facilities or cred for the unrestricted
exchange by mail of small packages of
merchandise. "The new treaty in effect"
says the report, "makes unificiatiou of
the postal systems of the two countries
into one postal territory. The
present SYSTEM" continues the
report, "of dispatching the trans
atlantic mails bY the fastest steam
ers without regard to the flag under
which they sail, has given great satisfac-
ton to the people of the United States.
And much complaint has bsen made by
the commercial and financial interests of
the country on account of the different
policy pursued by some of the European
governments in combining the dispatch of
their mails for the United States to GER
tain lines of steamers without regard to
the speed of the vessels. The Central
and South American service is as
good as can be obtained under the
system of dispatchins mails by
vessels when loaded" Frequently vessels
rendered to the department to convey
these mails on a certain day sail several
avs before or after the time appointed, to
the annoyance end Inconvenience of cor
respondents. 1t is suggested rs
means of correcting this evil that the
Postmaster General be authoriz sd by law
to allow an additional compensation
over and above that now allowed to
vessels engaged in this service, which
would make it to the advantage of the
steamship companies to adhere to their
scheduled sailing dates.
Superintendent Bell takes strong
grounds in favor of parcel post conven-
tions between the several governments,
and especially of South American coun-
tries. This system, he says, would be an
important avenue for the extension of the
commerce of the United States. He points
out the advantages derived by foreign
governments which have this system in
operation. Superintendent Bell asks for
$647.GO0 for the foreign mail service for
the fiscal year.
